Ex-Husband Begone (Bethany and Terrence) novel Chapter 181

Chapter181

“Yeah, it doesn’t really look like it was drawn by a person, even

though it’s beautiful and stunning. But if it’s a machine’s work,

it’s not worth much money”

“Even if it’s hand–painted, so what? Just by looking at the

gorgeous appearance, you can tell it’s not a masterpiece. The paper is so new, it’s definitely not an antique. Going to such

great lengths, in the end, it’s just ordinary, right?”

“Speaking of which, Ms. Gilbert’s jade pipe was not sincere

enough.”

The people present were a bit shocked, after all, it was too real,

the 3D effect was like the real thing right in front of everyone.

They were all high society people after all, familiar with all

kinds of famous paintings.

For them, paintings that are not antiques or by famous artists,

no matter how beautiful, are not valuable.

Really hit home, still feels like losing face.

Evangeline’s face looked even worse, she thought the

McConnell family’s reputation was going to be ruined by

Chapter1B

Bethany.

As for Krista, she knew Bethany could do paper cutting very well, but so what? Bethany wasn’t a famous artist, even if it’s paper cutting, it has to be done by a famous artist to be valuable.

It’s just seeking attention, in the end, people will laugh at it.

Jameson, with his reading glasses on, kept looking and looking.

At this moment, an old man stepped forward, “Do you guys understand? This is a long–lost floating cut paper, not something

ordinary people can cut out.”

“What is paper–cutting relief? Never heard of it before?”

“Even though I’ve never heard of it, Sir Harmon said it’s very

rare and valuable because it’s been lost for a long time.”

Someone was gossiping nearby.

Krista’s face changed completely.

Evangeline’s mood got a little better, at least she didn’t lose face.

Sir Harmon got up and walked towards Bethany, very politely

asking, “Excuse me, ma’am, who cut this piece of art?”

Kyson immediately said, “It was her.”

Chapter181

“Really?”

Sir Harmon was excited and reached out his hand to shake

Bethany’s hand, but Jameson beat him to it and grabbed Bethany’s hand, pushing Sir Harmon aside.

Jameson pulled Bethany to the seat he had just been sitting in,

made her sit down, held her hand and didn’t want to let go. He

gently patted the back of Bethany’s hand, tears shimmering in

his old eyes.

“Girl, the gift you gave me is really precious, you restored the

ancestral home of the Duarte family, my family’s ancestral

home, originally only left a photo, the scenery in the photo is all

blurry, but you…”

Jameson couldn’t help but take another look at the artwork.

“You cut it so beautifully. The child on top is me as a kid, and the

woman next to him is my mother. When I see this paper-

cutting, I feel like I’m there. This is the most satisfying gift I’ve

ever received in my life!”

Jameson really loved paper cutting himself, and he gave

Bethany the highest praise.

Everyone was shocked to hear Sir Duarte say that it was the

ancestral home of the Duarte family, and they were speechless.

Chapter181

The Duarte family’s ancestral home is now a very iconic historic building tourist attraction in the city, everyone present knows

1. it.

All of a sudden, praises were heard from all around.

Sir Harmon came over and said, “Jameson, can I have a word? I

want to shake hands with this girl, you’ve been hogging all the

chances.”

Sir Harmon used to be the head of the Alenia Department of

Cultural Affairs. After retiring, he moved back to his hometown

of Rivermond and has been good friends with Sir Duarte for

many years.

Sir Harmon was a guest today, Jameson quickly said, “Okay,

okay, you talk to Beth for a few minutes.”

Sir Harmon said to Beth with a smile, “Beth, cultural bureaus

across the country are very supportive of applications for

intangible cultural heritage. Not long ago, I heard from a former

colleague at my old unit that no one has applied for the

intangible cultural heritage of relief paper–cutting. They have

been looking for talent in this area. I want to recommend you to

them!”

Sir Harmon couldn’t wait to take Bethany to apply.

Chapter181

Davon couldn’t help but walk over this way.

Krista looked up and saw Davon, her face changed completely.

Bethany’s paper–cutting work today is just average, not like that exaggerated “Last Judgment” piece. But Bethany seems to have a real talent in this area. This paper–cutting work, although not exaggerated, still has a sense of animation. From the work, it’s as if you can see the bustling streets of sixty or seventy years ago.

Terrence probably didn’t have time to discuss the animation character with Davon. If Davon liked Bethany’s work, then all

her efforts last night were in vain.
